Be Still…

This morning I made my way out to my patio to spend time with Father. As I mentioned yesterday, I needed to get back to having a conversation with Him rather than just reciting prayers. My relationship with him has kind of been on “auto-pilot” for the past few weeks and that isn’t where it should be. I…

Reconnecting

Has anyone else been experiencing the flying by of the days lately? I know there is a saying the older we get the faster time goes by. I get it now for sure. When I was little it seemed like it took forever for some things, like the school year to end. Now, I’m like, um, where did the…

New Beginnings

Last year I shared several blogs about a beautiful eagle family down here in SW Florida. We have an “eagle cam” that captures the day-to-day life of these amazing creatures. There was tragedy last spring when the mother Harriett was killed by a predator as she tried to protect her eaglets while M15 the father was out…

From Scratch

One day last week I was making pasta for dinner. I did the usual, chopped up the onions, and green peppers, cooked them with the meat, pasta into the boiling water. Then I asked my husband to grab the spaghetti sauce from the pantry. He looked around and then came out saying, “Um I don’t see any spaghetti…

Simple Gifts

This morning as I sat down to write this little blog, I was reflecting on a couple of things from yesterday. I realized how a few simple gifts I received just made me smile. Sometimes people don’t realize how much they can affect someone with something so simple. As the old saying goes, “It’s the thought that counts”.…

A Short Time Here

Yesterday was a busy day, like most these days. I was bouncing from one thing to another, lots of people coming and going in the office, several meetings going on, you get the idea. Toss in a few challenges like the copier not working as we’re printing a brochure for an event, or computer issues with the…

Happy Place

Yesterday on social media I saw pictures of friends who were in their “happy place”. You know what I mean, the places they go where they feel total peace and happiness. I saw pictures of people at the beach, skiing in the mountains, hiking trails in the woods, and yes, even on the golf course. These are the…

When the Soreness Set In

Like many, I’ve started the new year with a commitment to get myself back in shape. I’ve put on the pounds and it’s interesting, I can totally relate the way I feel physically to carrying that extra weight. It’s time to get back to feeling less aches and pains, fitting comfortably into clothes, and just feeling better.…

Old Christmas and Family

Yesterday at work I was moving from task to task and was pretty much all over the campus. We have a new cleaning crew for the month so I was showing them what needed to be taken care of, our facilities manager is on vacation so I was attending to some tasks that he normally handles,…

A Prayer for 2024

Happy 2024 friends. As we begin a new year with so many new opportunities I wanted to share this prayer that Billy Graham offered back in 2008, printed in the Saturday Evening Post. As I read it this morning, all I can say is it is so beautiful, timeless, and perfect for today, I just had to…
